"The first-ever history of New York's pioneering art space, with film stills, ephemera and photography in a scrapbook styleSince its inception in the early 1970s, MoMA PS1 in Long Island City, Queens, has been a crucible for radical experimentation.

"This accompanying catalogue to the current exhibition of installation art at the St. Louis Museum of Art is just as impressive in form as it is in content: Wonderland comes with a special insert containing photographs of the on-site installations, reproduced in full-color posters. This innovative design is a perfect complement to the sense of active creation, of imagination, and of joy that characterizes the works of art here. The ten a ..."
"The transition between a dream and reality is sometimes blurry and jagged--moments of panic, confusion, fear, joy, a trail of thoughts that carries emotions from one world to the next. This delicate, ever-shifting boundary between real and virtual environments is explored in "Videodreams," the exhibition catalogue of recent video installations by Stan Douglas, Rodney Graham, Joan Jonas, Sharon Lockhart and other artists whose work is re ..."
"The multimedia works of Canadian artist duo Janet Cardiff (born 1957) and George Bures Miller (born 1960) are often reminiscent of whimsical childhood experiences such as fairgrounds. This monograph documents six large-scale installations on the subject of the entertainment industry."
"The immersive soundscape installations and intimate environments of the Canadian artist duo Janet Cardiff (born 1957) and Georges Bures Miller (born 1960) present an ongoing series of chapters in the life of the ghost in the machine. Their works describe tales of tag-sale menace and shared loneliness through aural means, wholly reconceiving the gallery experience. A pioneering collector of new media art, Ingvild Goetz has assembled a si ..."

"Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller's "The Murder of Crows" is a surrealistic sound installation inspired in part by Goya's famous etching "The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters." This hallucinatory work depicts a man asleep with owls and bats swooping menacingly around his head; Cardiff and Miller's title also refers to the habit among crows of flocking to a dead crow and cawing collectively, often for over a day, in a "crow funeral. ..."
"This is the definitive edition documenting Janet Cardiff's audio Walks in Paris, London, and New York. For these walks, Cardiff provided gallery-goers with walkmans which led them through the cities relying solely on the acoustic guide. The urban environment thus became the scene of a mysterious narrative in which the visitors became ever more involved. An artist's book with a CD that “guides” readers through the book with regards to te ..."
"Shifting between fact and fiction, between the experience of the real and our projections, fantasies, and desires, Janet Cardiff's audio-video and multimedia installations explore the complexity and vertiginous nature of subjectivity in a highly technological world. They are interactive pieces where visitors are asked to touch, listen, smell, and often move through an environment shaped both by our perceptions and by the artist's altera ..."
"Using existing elements in prison cells at the massive Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, sound artists Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller produced a percussive site-specific work that was rhythmic and musical at some points and at other times pure sound, as if made by the multitude of ghosts inhabiting the cells. Eastern State Penitentiary was the world's first true "penitentiary," designed to inspire profound regret--or pe ..."

"Situation -- a unique set of conditions produced in both space and time and ranging across material, social, political, and economic relations -- has become a key concept in twenty-first-century art. Rooted in artistic practices of the 1960s and 1970s, the idea of situation has evolved and transcended these in the current context of globalization. This anthology offers key ..."
"To the delight of museum-goers around the world the internationally acclaimed audio-artist creates "sound fictions", carefully orchestrated experiences combining music, ambient sounds and narrative. Donning headphones and following a pre-ordained path, the listener becomes a participant in a shared exploration of sensory perceptions. For the current project, her site is a large garden on Lake Ontario. Conversations and events are strung ..."
"Walk Ways examines the ways in which a diverse group of artists has explored the theme of walking as an action and a metaphor. From Eleanor Antin, Janine Antoni, Janet Cardiff, and Hamish Fulton to Martin Kersels, Nancy Spero, Richard Wentworth, and others, the artists in Walk Ways consider walking as a purposeful or meandering activity that unites bodily and mental freedom, and "the walk" as a means of commenting on human agency, polit ..."
